Is Niverville a good place to live?

Safety is its strong suit (A). It also does well on jobs & income (A−). The trade-off is health (C+). At $348,000, the median home value in 2021 came to 3.4 times local household income. Put together, the subjects come to an A− overall, ranking #11 of 181 in Manitoba. That leaves it better than 78% of Canadian towns.

Figures: home values and income: Statistics Canada, Census 2021.

Rents here are the metro area's average, shared by every town and neighbourhood in it. No School Grade: this province doesn't publish comparable results school by school. Health is graded on the health region's survey figures and life expectancy, with the distance to hospital giving the town its own spread.
